Inevitable jerky outcome: It's actually elves wot did it, and he's neither surprised or upset by this. Request: Track down a monster which has been preying on his men in the woods It just turned out to be some stupid flowers anyway. My response: I let him go but kept the medicine, hoping I could give it to someone in need. To add insult to injury, he even tried the ol' 'look out behind you!' trick. Inevitable jerky outcome: He's actually a secret agent for the Northern army, and had brutally ambushed one of the other side's medical transports, whose contents he wanted me to reclaim from the dangerous swamp for him. Request: Find his cart and goods, which were missing in a nearby swamp as a result of a horrible monster attack he narrowly escaped from Profession: A lowly trader wearing a nappy on his head My response: I refused his bribe, so he attacked me and got himself and his men summarily killed. Inevitable jerky outcome: Once freed, he took up a life of robbing refugees and now proudly declares himself a rich man. Request: Rescue him from being left tied up at the water's edge by fearful locals, where he was to become Drowner feed any minute
Profession: Soldier for the army who I think are the slightly less evil side of the war but I'm almost certainly wrong about that I've ceased to expect that any contract or quest will result in any warm and fuzzy feelings, and now presume from the off that whoever offered it to me has darkness in their heart. The only reason I - a randy mercenary-for-hire who murders anything he can't sleep with - am nominally a hero in this world is because everyone else in it is a total ratbag. critical opinion & technical complaints are happening elsewhere on the site. The music on this show never fails to give me goosebumps.Continuing a (mostly) in-character diary of my adventures in The Witcher 3. That remix of the Westworld theme at the end had me cheering. "Your hosts would rather die than live in your world." Ouch, that must've hurt. What is the deal with Clementine this season? And does anyone have any guesses as to why Halores is "bleeding"? Is she somehow becoming an outlier in her own world? Please no "bury the gays" trope on my Westworld, thank you. I let out a huge sigh of relief when C's girlfriend Odina didn't turn out to be the mole, despite all the obvious signs pointing at Jay. The visual of Caleb on top of the drone hosts (the creepy, white robots) with him stabbing it in the eye is such an incredible shot. I can't wait to see her eventually reunite with Dolores/Christina in an attempt to take Halores down for good. For her, she has been years in slumber, but while it's only been a couple of episodes for audiences, it is still immediately relieving to watch her return and save C from getting killed. After Bernard and C spend some time finding and replacing her control unit, Maeve is officially revived (to no one's surprise), and Thandiwe Newton wastes no time being badass. Luckily, the writers give us a little bit of Maeve again this week. I've said this before and it is worth repeating: Tessa Thompson is phenomenal in the role, portraying a ruthless villain set to get what she wants, no matter the cost. Color me intrigued.Ĭaleb's adventures sadly end up taking him exactly where Halores wanted him to, which is only slightly disappointing from a narrative standpoint but completely understandable to point Halores as the ultimate Big Bad this season. It is brutal, harrowing, and equally shocking in ways I didn't think Westworld can be anymore. His escapades reach a particularly bone-chilling twist when he realizes he needs to use a previous version of himself as scapegoat to jump off a crawl space vent. Whether he is confronting previous versions of himself, looking at clues and breadcrumbs he's left in his attempts to escape Halores' captivity, or excruciatingly finding ways to leave a message to his future daughter, Paul is magnificent and extremely difficult not to root for. "Fidelity" puts Caleb through the wringer, giving Paul a chance to really show off his acting chops throughout this stellar hour.
